Electronics Manufacturing Must Have Finger Cots
The secret is out. Electronics manufacturers have long known the benefits of having finger cots, or finger gloves, at the ready when producing sensitive technological devices or delicate electronic parts such as circuit boards, semiconductors, photonics, or microelectronics. The pros at Medco Supplies know there are three major benefits to having the right finger cots on hand for the manufacturing of electronic components.
Static Dissipative
When you think of finger cots, you may not immediately think of anti-static properties. But there are static dissipative, or anti-static finger cots readily available for some of the most sensitive electronics assembly. This feature is essential for static-sensitive production.
Prevent Contamination
Finger cots do a great job of keeping oils, fingerprints, perspiration, skin salts, flakes, and dirt from sensitive components. When full gloves are not necessary, finger cots can provide the protective surface to prevent contamination of sensitive electronics. While allowing full hand comfort, they also reduce finger fatigue when working repetitive tasks.
Protective Barrier
While offering improved dexterity and grip, finger cots also prove protection for soldering or handling delicate parts. They protect fingers from contaminants, such as liquid crystals.
They also protect fingers from scratches or cuts when working with sharp objects, prickly surfaces, or rough finishes. The thickest, heavy duty finger gloves—the 16mil orange or static dissipative finger cots—offer the greatest protection against cuts and abrasions. They also have textured surfaces for maximum dexterity.

Available in powdered—for easy donning—or powder free—for controlled environments—finger cots are available by the gross in vacuum-sealed polybags. Powder-free finger cots are DI washed and Class 100 processed. Finger cots are available in 10 gross, 5 gross, or 300 per pack, depending on which one you choose. They are tested for particulate count, corrosion, extractable ions, surface sensitivity, and tensile strength. Finger cots come rolled or unrolled, and in sizes ranging from small to extra large.
